Everything is shit, but it has nothing to do with immigrants.
It's billionaires who charge you the earth for energy, banking, food, public transport, housing...
And then steal all the money and provide almost nothing.

Think about how many countries are arresting protesters for terrorism because they're protesting against Israel.
Then let yourself finally understand the scope of what is happening right now.
It's not just the u.s.
They are after the whole world & their finish line is in sight.
ARE YOU AWAKE YET

When the U.S. uses the military against citizens, attacks immigrants, and executes people who pose no threat, it jeopardizes our national security because it incites violence, invites retaliation, normalizes fascism, and sets precedence for others to follow suit.

I and millions of Americans believe exactly the same thing Kasparov does.
Too many troops, too many new prisons, too much money not under Congressional supervision.
We're not just witnessing a mass deportation scheme anymore.
This is something significantly bigger and scarier.
